Just when the Huo Jiajun Coast Guard Fleet shocked the French Far East Fleet and the situation in the Far East, which had been calm for three years, was about to become turbulent because of the arrival of the French, the Huo Jiajun, which had been deployed in Egypt for nearly three years, also reached the most critical time.

Hilla is a small fishing village on the Red Sea coast of Egypt, with a population of no more than two hundred. But three years later, not a single Egyptian was found in this small fishing village, which had never appeared on the map. Instead, it became one of several secret strongholds for Egypt's Huo Jiajun to communicate with the outside world.

In the past three years, Huo Jiajun transported all kinds of weapons, ammunition and various materials needed in the Egyptian war to Egypt through this stronghold, avoiding the strict naval blockade of the British, and then transported all kinds of art and gold plundered from Egypt back to Nanyang.

"Captain, here!" Guan Xin poked Dong Fangchen, who was dozing off beside him, and said excitedly.

Hearing this, Dong Fangchen was like a cheetah with his eyes open, and his sharp eyes looked at the pitch-black sea in the distance! Sure enough, three beams of light, one long and two short, appeared in the distance.

At this time, this small group of special forces belonging to the Cheetah Special Forces were all in good spirits.

"Great! Lao Guan, quickly release the signal and guide them over!" Dong Fangchen's eyes were hot, and he roared in a low voice.

Hearing his words, Guan Xin, who had already grasped the navigation lamp in his hand on the side, couldn't wait to face the rough sea, also in the same way as one long and two short. Start sending out responses.

"Iron Pillar, immediately inform the troops behind that the thing has arrived. Let them hurry up!" As Dong Fangchen's words fell, a tall soldier beside him holding Huo Jiajun's new poisonous scorpion light machine gun suddenly stood up, and then quickly disappeared into the darkness behind.

With the contact of light signals one after another, the distance between the two sides became shorter and shorter, and soon a huge black shadow like a giant whale in the sea slowly rose from the water. Then slowly leaned against a small pier specially prepared for it.

The Walrus-class submarine was the result of the Huo Jiajun's blockade of the Egyptian coast in Britain and the ban on ships from all over the world. In particular, after the munitions ship approached the Egyptian port, in order to support the operation of the Huo family army in Egypt and enhance the combat capability of the Egyptian defense force of Mohammed al-Arabi, the Huo family army submarine research institute specially produced and manufactured. Submarines specialized for the transportation of underwater supplies.

At that time, the tonnage of Walrus-class submarines was only about 100 tons. However, with the support of Huo Lan's research and Huo Shan's advanced technical data, Huo Jiajun's submarine research has made great progress, especially in the case of stronger diesel engines and electric motors and further reduced failure rates, the maximum underwater displacement of the latest Walrus 3 submarine has reached 400 tons.

Although, excluding all weapons, the maximum depth of the dive is less than fifteen meters. The crew was only 10 people, and the maximum underwater range was only 80 kilometers. fully exerted the disadvantage of short legs to the extreme, but the eighty tons of goods it carried each time were a strong support for the Huo family's army in Egypt. Without these supplies, I am afraid that the Egyptian army would not have been able to hold out for three years.

As the submarine landed, there was a 'bang', and the huge submarine cover was pushed up from the inside, and then a middle-aged soldier wearing a dark blue military uniform, wearing a golden star on his body, and two brigadier epaulettes of golden dragons at the end, climbed out of it.

"Commander Chang, why did you come here in person?" Guo Yu, who was standing on a small pier made of cement and wood, looked at the middle-aged soldiers who came over, and asked in a surprised tone.

As the captain of the first brigade of the Cheetah Special Forces, the Cheetah Special Forces who became famous in Borneo at the beginning, who captured three warships including the Dutch cruiser 'Hector' in one fell swoop with a small sacrifice, has now become a senior officer of the Huo Family Army with the rank of colonel.

"This is the last batch of supplies before the mission starts, and I always feel a little relieved, so I will come over and have a look!" Chang Baofeng, commander of the submarine force of the Huo family, replied with a smile.

After saluting each other, Guo Yu continued to ask, "When you come here, is it safe at sea?"

"Well, since the British took Cairo, the sea checks are not as strict as they used to be!

The reason why the Huojiajun secret material transportation channel was chosen here, instead of being further north, the port of Amulai, which is also sparsely populated and has the conditions to become a good port, is that it is more secluded and safe than the port of Amulai, which has an unobstructed view of the open sea, located on Wadijimal Island and the Gulean Islands, and Hilla under the cover of Cape Hungkulab.

"This is the list of this material transportation, you can sign for it!" Time is precious, Chang Baofeng is not verbose, took out the list of this material transportation from his jacket pocket and handed it to Guo Yu.

500,000 rounds of 7.62mm caliber rifle ammunition, 120,000 rounds of 12.9mm heavy machine gun rounds, 15,000 rounds of 9mm pistol rounds, 10,000 oval grenades, 1,000 new infantry mines, 800 60 mortar shells, 500 82 caliber medium mortar shells, 5 tons of TNT high explosives, 15 Type 82 sniper rifles, 20 Scorpion light machine guns, 6 60 mortars, 3 82 mortars, and a number of medicines!

Of course, it is impossible for the submarine to transport so many materials at one time, and the Walrus III submarine does not have such a large volume. Batch transportation is the best choice, fortunately, there are Huo Jiajun transport ships on the sea that specialize in supporting submarines, and under the transportation of multiple submarines in one night, each one will be completed three or four times back and forth.

"Why are there so many things all of a sudden?" Guo Yu asked with a frown after reading the contents of the list in his hand.

"Hehe, the General Staff is afraid that after our operation, the British will suffer heavy losses, so the dog jumps over the wall and intensifies the attack on coastal ships. So bring in a lot of supplies in advance, and then wait for things to calm down a bit, and then resume traffic. So, before the new supplies arrive, you have to hold on to them for at least three months. Chang Baofeng replied.

Hearing this, Guo Yu nodded, as a senior officer of the special forces, he also understood the importance of the next action. So after listening to Chang Baofeng's words, he didn't say anything. And if they save a little bit of ammunition, they will be able to use it for three months! After all, there are only more than 300 cheetahs and dragon teeth combined.

"This is the harvest of this month and a half, we have sealed it, and we still need Commander Chang to transport it back to Nanyang and hand it over to the General Logistics Department!"

"Hey, Guo Yu, your skills are not small, this time you got so many good things, fifty-six tons of gold, two hundred and thirty tons of silver, and a few jewelry...!" After a pause, Chang Baofeng's face suddenly showed excitement, turned to look at the young colonel beside him, and asked, "Found it?"

"Yes, I found it!"

"Great, now the young master's explanation is finally completed!" Chang Baofeng took a while to calm down his excitement, "Nothing happened during the excavation, right?"

"We kept in mind the young master's warning and didn't dare to enter without permission, so we basically hired Egyptians and some European archaeologists, so none of our people had any accidents!" Guo Yu said.

"That's good, if we don't have unlimited electricity here, I really want to inform the young master of this good news as soon as possible!" Chang Baofeng said.

Compared with Huo Jiajun's radio transmission base stations all over the Pacific and South Seas, there are much more scarce in the Indian Ocean, which is wide and lacks bases, and coupled with the need for secrecy, the construction of unlimited electric base stations outside Huo Jiajun's sphere of influence is basically non-existent. Therefore, under the influence of the curved surface of the earth, the short-wave radio station used by the Egyptian Huo Jiajun could not contact Nanyang at the first time. As a result, there is a lag in the message.

Egypt's Valley of the Kings, whether in ancient times, modern times, or even modern times, has never lacked the patronage of thieves for more than 3,000 years, and after the arrival of Western colonizers, tomb robberies in the name of archaeological excavations have become rampant.

More than 60 Egyptian emperors, including Thutmose III, Amenhotep II, Seti I, and Ramses II, buried themselves here, became famous for their extensive excavations of exquisite Egyptian art. Of course, it has also attracted more grave robbers from all over the world.

And Huo Jiajun, who came here in 1882, is one of them.

Especially when the Anglo-Egyptian War broke out and the situation in Egypt was in chaos, in addition to helping the Egyptians resist the attack of the British army, the two special forces of the Huo family also used the power handed over by Muhammad Arabi to sweep Egypt, especially most of the nobles and capitalists in Cairo, and obtained a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry and various works of art. Moreover, before Cairo was occupied by the British, a large number of cultural relics in Cairo's museums were looted.

Of course, Huo Shan, who came from later generations and understood the value of these works of art, could not let go of the largest archaeological discovery in Egypt in the 20th century - Tutankhamun's mausoleum!

Beginning in 1882, Huo Shan secretly ordered two special forces to come to the Valley of the Kings, and then with the help of the information provided by Huo Shan, it took nearly three years to finally find this Egyptian pharaoh's mausoleum with extremely rich funerary goods.

More than 5,000 funerary goods, a large number of exquisite murals, and the famous Tutankhamun gold mask were all packaged into the trophies of the Huo family's army. And the reason why Chang Baofeng was surprised just now was that he saw the famous cultural relics that the young master had mentioned on the list.

"It seems that we will be busy in the next few days!" Chang Baofeng put away the list and said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
